Before Saturday’s gigantic night of boxing in Riyjad, the BoxingScene band looks at the future at what they expect will happen in Saudi Arabia, and which warrior will appear with the victory of one of the most attractive duels.

Tris Dixon: Because John Scully, who works with Beterbieal, pointed out that I still can’t snail-paced down under Bivola’s eye. Chris Eubanka’s first fight with Carl Thompson was a war and he still had a black eye when they fought again and immediately entered the game. Scully really knows this sport on the left and although tempting will say that Beterbiev is a little older and Bivol knows that he is opposite, I think that the eye will become a factor and although Beterbiev may not stop Bivol, such an obstacle may become such an obstacle, which he must give up and give up rounds to survive.

Kieran Mulvaney: I chose Bivol to win for the first time, and I thought he had thrown him personally, so I choose him again. Beterbiev is consistently impressive, and there is a lot more for him than he himself, but he is now 40 years venerable and this is the fastest turn between the fights since 2015. There is so little to choose that marginal differences are marginal differences will come into the game, and this time they are in favor of Bivol.

LANCE PUGMIRE: Dmitriry Bivol. I thought he won the first fight, and his 12 rounds of experience against the older, heavier Hitter should refer to Bivol to create a shiny program similar to his performance against Canelo Alvarez. Beterbiev has an excuse to let go of gas, taking into account his position to the trilogy match, and that a fraction of motivation conducive to Bivol – as the Beterbavów is 40 years venerable – should be the bivol tempo for a unanimous decision. I will say 116-112.

Tom Ivers: Artur Beterbiev can achieve much better than in October, especially with a sedate knee injury. I think that this time we will see the perpetrator, sharper and more explosive plant. He will undermine the pace early and I do not see that Bivol is able to cope with constant pressure for 12 rounds. I do not think that Bivol can significantly improve his performance in October, and if he holds his feet more, I can only imagine Nokaut Beterbiev.

Ryan Songalia: It is really tough to say because I do not know what every warrior can do differently than the first fight up close. Beterbiev finally won because he was ready to press a little more in a behind schedule fight than Bivol, which he himself achieved many successes to choose Beterbaview. I think that if Bivol can invest in the body early, instead of going only on low hanging fruit upstairs, and it can close a stronger fight. But I think you have to favor Beterbaview again.

Owen Lewis: If Beterbiev was 35 years venerable, not 40, I would agree to predict Tom to the letter. I thought that Bivol looked special in October and made his desired game plan to the highest possible standard, while Beterbiev was only sporadically effective, though in the crucial rounds of the championship. Considering that Beterbiev made a decision, I felt that it was quite clear proof that he was a better general warrior. But Beterbiev is comfortably the oldest warrior on pounds for pounds and, despite his resistance to his father, Logic suggests that he will look a little worse in this fight than the last one, just as he was a little worse against Bivol than against Callum Smith in January 2024. Power Beterbaview is still a constant threat to winning by knockout, but I expect age His engine will manage – and maybe even its impact resistance – sufficient for Bivol win the decision.

Matt Christie: Like Fight One, this is an extremely tough choice. And even after using the fact that they were made available earlier, it is not easier to make a decision. Perhaps Beterbiev recently fought an injury and not quite matched, because although I felt that he only pressed it, he tried to ensure long enough to be convincing. Given their age and a potential place to improve, Bivol on points would be my uncertain forecast.

Eric Raskin: I will bend towards Beterbaview, perhaps a little less controversial this time. Bivol really felt pressure when the first fight lasted. Although he was urgently boxing, he did not seem to be able to hurt Beterbavera and learned how tough to discourage him. As long as Beterbiev does not appear more than in October, I think that this time he may start a little earlier and abused the unanimous win in points.

Declan Warrington: By denying something I have already written about this fight, Beterbiev after stopping. I am convinced that he will be won by a warrior, who took advantage of the first fight between them the most – who learned the most about the second and can make the necessary corrections to win a boxing competition. It may be Bivol, which produces a different master class. But if it is Beterbiev – and in the first fight there were tips – it usually means victory in space. Is it too cynical to indicate that if it is as competitive as the first fight, Bivol will probably decide due to the potential of the third fight? If this is not the case, I had similar suspicions before Oleksandr Usyk-Tyson Fury II and I was pleasantly surprised that they turned out to be badly recognized.

Elliot Worsell: As always, I really have no idea, but I will go for Bivol based on the fact that I thought he won the first fight against rounds to lose, and around the ninth or tenth I felt Masterclass. Things changed soon, in rounds 11 and 12, but I can’t deny how I felt how to watch Bivol during the first 10 rounds. To say, Beterbiev will certainly be better for the second time and undoubtedly encourages what happened in rounds 11 and 12 Fight One.

Lucas Ketelle: I believe we will see the draw. The first fight was so close and I doubt that we would see something else in the second.

Jason Langendorf: The rematch is the same as tossed as the first fight when it comes to the way he was perceived before and after. It only depends on what you like. But Beterbiev’s power is a distinguishing feature, and if his knee is well and has not been four in the last four months, this time he will win even more convincing – perhaps even by knockout.
